The 2017 NFL QB rookie class was headlined by Mitchel Trubisky, Patrick Mahomes and Deshaun Watson, but outside of those three how did the rest of the QBs turn out and how bad was the class overall? Let’s take a look, enjoy!
Hackenberg was so bad he couldn’t even compete for a practice squad slot, the only reason he was on that roster as long as he was was because he was selected so damn high by incompetent management
He's good in the locker room and getting the starting QB ready for the game. He's awesome in practice which makes him a good backup to run the scout team. You just hope to death you never need to use him
@@billsfeverreminds me of how Tim Boyle had a job despite his god awful college stats and even worse professional stats. The very definition of intangible value
Say what you want about Deshawn Watson, most of it is deserved and he's fallen completely off as a player, but a 3 time Pro Bowler and highest paid player in all of the NFL, calling him a BUST is going a touch too far. He's regressed miserably tho
Would love to see a a video on the 2015 QB class. All backups and a couple of guys who never made it though I thought they’d be better (Bryce Petty, Brett Hundley, Connor Halliday). Also would mind the 2016 QB draft as well. Besides Goff, this one was littered with busts. Wentz, Lynch, Hackenberg, Cook, Cardale Jones, Jake Coker et al.
49ers wasted their gains on that trade, if it makes you feel any better. Cut Soloman Thomas, cut Rueben Foster, cut Dante Pettis, and missed out on Alvin Kamara
Nah dawg it not racism even though Nathan Peterman sucks the NFL can do whatever they want they make the rules it there house so yea there system is racist and rigged and not perfect but that why we need our own league and then we can hire black QB more often @@Yay4Yay
@@Yay4Yaythe NFL was created in whites image so of course they hire more white QB's 1st they do what is best for them whites 1st not the real racism it human nature I actually am ok with whites people not liking me.
I went to Tech during the Mahomes and Kliff era. Davis Webb was the starter then, and in my opinion, the superior QB. Interesting to see how both of their careers turned out.
did not give excuses to Deshaun Kaiser because Brian Kelly said he was not ready for the NFL and Pete Carol said the same thing about Marc Sanchez and both those players became bust and they should’ve listened to their coach
I was one that said he Patrick Mahomes was going to be a great legendary QB and so far he is. I said that as soon as he announced he was entering the nfl Draft.
Calling Watson a bust is a wild take. Man made the playoffs twice and led the league in passing. He maybe overpaid now due to his ridiculous contract but far from a bust. He was considered a top 5 QB before he left football for nearly a yearf and a half.
@Lifesabeach91 he didn't fail the team that drafted him. Lol he played very well for the Texans. Gave them everything you look for a franchise QB until the relationship went soul. Then he help give us those extra draft picks they can rebuild with an even better and cheaper QB in Stroud. That is a total win for the Texans.
@@Attack_Pillowwtf are you talking about? He took those horrible Texans to the playoffs multiple times and won the division as well. You people don’t watch / know football. He was practically forced out of the league for nearly 2 years. It’s a reason the browns signed him to a fully guaranteed contract at the number they did. SMH
Not really. There are currently 23 QBs in the HOF and the only year that I can recall that had multiple HOFers was 1983. This doesn't even include sure things like Peyton Manning (1998), Brady (2000), Mahommes (2017) and Brees (2001) and potential entrants like Rothlisberger (2003), Rivers (2003), Stafford (2009), Rogers (2004) and Eli Manning (2003).
the 2021 class could turn out to be far worst then the 2017 where you have Mahomes + Watson who when he was rolling was a top 5 QB. His play this year will define the legacy of the QB draft class if he returns to form. Love the video but to QBR or Passer Rating is a much better stats for QBs then Yds or Pass-INT ration. Keep it up.
Trubisky needed more development. sad what happened to him. If he's a good system quarterback then play to his strengths, and script the hell out of the game plan.
There are teams that just don’t know how to evaluate, draft and coach QBs. Chicago is a prime example. They fall in love with EVERY college QB highlight reel. Mark my words, Caleb Williams won’t survive his rookie contract with the Bears. Before that contract is over, he’ll be in another NFL team’s uniform.
everyone gets on the bears for taking tribiksi instead of mahomes but the real crime was the 49ers passing on mahomes and taking soloman after the bears gifted them mahomes
The problem with the Bears when they drafted Trubisky was, they were drafting a quarterback with the highest floor, not the highest ceiling. Trubisky did many things well, but he was not great or elite at anything. Suppose you do not have any elite skill sets as a quarterback, such as athleticism, passing ability, or ability to read defenses. In that case, you will never be better than a league-average quarterback. Trubisky was never better than a league-average starter at best.
Those allegations against Watson were handled outside of civil court, there were never any criminal charges. That's not definitive proof the allegations were true.
You guys can't find a better way to make money then to bash kids out of college calling them bust right away its so ridiculous say something positive or like most people don't know how to
“It turned out to be true…” on Watson’s $exua1 allegations. Huh? When was he convicted? Oh, I guess you’re one of those who presumes guilt until proven innocent. I hope Watson sues Houston and gets defamation suits on all the women who lied. By the way, I never read that he “forced” anyone to do anything. At worst, he asked. I could be wrong on that last part, it’s been a while. I just hate seeing the same lame chatter against a man who was “accused”. A lot of those accusations have a funny way of disappearing under scrutiny. We all know a good number of those women just saw $$$. Sad what happened to him.
